Product Description
Blue States’ third album ‘The Soundings’ marks a significant change of direction both musically and in band set up. Founder member Andy Dragazis has drafted in former live band members Chris Carr and Jon Chandler to produce a record that has shifted away from his dance roots into a more indie influenced arena. Signposts point to Talk Talk and Doves, but ‘The Soundings’ is more than mere imitation. Dark and personal, Blue States have finally made a masterpiece. Memphis. 2004.

Part of the Sound Healing series from Soundings of the Planet, Tao of Healing teams flautist Dean Evenson with Li Xiangting, a professor from the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing and an authority on the guqin, an ancient seven-string zither from China. Their collaboration, with barely perceptible support from keyboards, acoustic guitar (Scott Huckabay) and percussion, is a hushed, serene, and inviting experience--as soft as the faintest breeze felt on a peaceful, sun-warmed afternoon. Evenson's meditative flute, which rarely strays from the instrument's comfortable low and middle ranges, is the disc's prevailing voice, with Xiangting's guqin discreetly supplying tasteful, angular accents to complement the Western vibe of Evenson's reflective improvisations. At times, in fact, this calming, slow-go disc (60 minutes in length) briefly conveys traces of jazzlike harmonics (largely Huckabay's contribution) that flavors the blissful proceedings with a nice touch of musicality. A slight soundalike quality might be detected in some tracks, but this is a minor quibble. This is Evenson's first recording where natural sounds are not included, though the liner notes assert the mix makes use of "earth resonance frequency" (7.8 hertz), all to enhance a listener's attainment of an alpha state. Actually, Evenson, Xiangting, and company do a commendable job of that on their own. A strong choice for supplementing massage or meditation. --Terry Wood

5 out of 5 stars Good for pets as well as people.......2007-03-03

I purchased this cd for myself, but noticed my Basenji seemed to relax a little whenever I put the music on. I often play it for her in repeat mode when I am going to be out. She is definitely "zen'd out" by the time I return!

I can best describe the music by saying that there are no loud instruments or uptempo arrangements to distract from the relaxation experience. The melody is soothing and uncomplicated, so it works well in many settings where a quiet mood is preferable (like doggie bath day). So do something nice for your pet...and yourself...and check out this cd. Alternately, I would recommend Dean Evenson's equally pleasant "Forest Rain" cd.

5 out of 5 stars nice.......2007-01-20

Students in my tai chi exercise classes for seniors prefer this--
over several similar CDs.

Maybe its the 7.8 hertz Earth Resonance Frequency in the mix?

Can be used also when doing the 24 Form Yang style--

Although "O'Holy Night" works wonders during the Christmas season
(5 and 1/2 minutes almost fits the Form perfectly.)

Something of a "greatest hits" collection, this CD contains several tracks from previous Evenson albums, as well as several new pieces. What sets Sound Healing apart from most recordings of its ilk is that the pieces are musically sound; instead of wandering from place to place, they have a musical starting point and destination, which makes them enjoyable to listen to. Of course, this doesn't detract from Evenson's intended purpose; Sound Healing is an excellent accompaniment to meditation, with its blend of flute, harp, guitar, and natural sounds such as crashing waves and birdcalls. Whether you use them as part of a healing program or just to relax, the gentle melodies and cinematic soundscapes of Sound Healing are an evocative treat. --Genevieve Williams

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful, uplifting, peaceful - HIGHLY RECOMMEND.......2005-11-01

I have many "new age" type CDs, from Deuter to Yanni to Liquid Mind. After having Sound Healing for years, I find it stands the test of time - I still LOVE listening to it, it never grows old. It is one of my top two CDs, ever. (The other is Deuter's Wind & Mountain.) It is soft, sweet, with joyful undertones. I would recommend it for anyone, for music to relax to, sleep to, stretch or do yoga to, or just about any other purpose. A friend heard me playing it on my laptop and said, My goodness, that is such beautiful music, what is it? I told her and she got herself a copy right away. Also, it makes a great gift - we got it for our sick grandmother, for her to listen to at night, to help ease her to sleep.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent CD.......2003-03-09

Relaxing and beautiful in an uplifting, not sad, sort of way. Suitable for listening at any time of day or night.

Album Description

"This is one of the best CDs I've heard in a long time- a compelling compliment to a massage session. The music slows down your brainwaves and induces a peaceful, calm and meditative state, which assists in healing. A must for massage therapists. - CREATIONS MAGAZINE

"Serene flute melodies with tender harp, subtle keyboards and soothing guitars raise up from a backdrop of gentle nature sounds in this gorgeous release from sound healing pioneer Dean Evenson. Assembled from previous releases and also including four new compositions, this soothing collection creates a deeply relaxing atmosphere that is invaluable in increasing the healing benefits of a good therapeutic massage session. As a matter of fact, this CD creates a musical environment that is so relaxing and refreshing that it almost makes the massage table and attached masseuse obsolete! Accompanied by the phenomenal Soundings Ensemble, Dean's ethereal flute expressions take the listener on a healing voyage that quickly distances you from the troubles and concerns of daily living by the medium of his beautiful musical soundscapes. Expertly mastered to further enhance the healing qualities of Dean's flutes and keyboards, Dudley Evenson and d'Rachael's harps, Phil Heaven's viola, Scott Huckabay's guitar and Tom Barabas' piano, Sound Massage could soon stand as the premier musical release for massage therapy, stress relief and relaxation. Definitely a "must have" for massage therapists and anyone in the healing arts, Sound Massage easily receives my highest recommendation to all lovers of beautiful, peaceful music." -MUSICAL SOUNDSCAPES by Rev Robert Walmsley

5 out of 5 stars Tom Barabas "Romantic Rhapsodies".......2004-07-05

This smooth, wonderfully interpreted CD turned into my fave CD for relaxing, doing artwork, computer tutorials & gardening. Also, so inspired by him that I bought his sheet music & now play some of his work on piano. This is my 2nd purchase as someone misplaced the first one. A must have for right-brainers.

5 out of 5 stars Magically romantic - no fluff here..........2001-04-26

I have many of Tom's CD's, and finally got around to getting this one - and I waited tooo long! Unlike many of today's 'romantic' pianists around (who do write and play well), Tom Barabas - classically trained with one very creative and passionate mind - is in a league of his own. For those fans of 'Sedona Suite' - you will not be disappointed. He has taken the 'ethereal new age' tone of SS, refined and reshaped it, and wrapped his loving soul into every piece on this beautiful CD. There is a new side of TB that you will hear on this CD, and tracks like 'Moonlight', 'Adagio', 'Epiphany' and 'Dolphin Dream' weave a soothing, at times rhapsodic sound - yet still remain focused on the intent of the pieces - to make you, the listener, feel a sense of joy and uplifting of the spirit.

Tom added some very tasteful - and not overdone - arrangements on many of the tracks. The injection of flute, guitar and synth accent many of the pieces very well. The only negative point is that the second piece ("Shades of Love") didn't seem to fit - a bossa-nova inflected piece that sounded too much like cheap night club music, amidst 9 other *magnificent* piano tracks that take you on one of Tom's best journeys. Not a point that should stop you from adding this CD to your collection today!

Overall, I am in full agreement with the artist himself - it is truly one of his best CD's. I think he opened a door here for 'new age haters' that would have shyed away from his 'Sedona' inspired works, and created a CD of music that anyone would enjoy (without selling out!).

5 out of 5 stars Rhapsodic piano music!.......2000-01-27

The first two tracks of Romantic Rhapsodies gave me the impression that this was going to be a very pleasant smooth jazz album, but it is so much more than that! I have to admit that this is my first Tom Barabas recording, so I apologize to his long-time fans (Barabas has recorded twelve albums to date). However, I will be digging into his other CDs for more! Steeped in classical traditions as well as jazz influences, Barabas has a varied approach to his music, keeping it consistently elegant and sophisticated. Barabas' years at the Liszt Conservatory in Hungary as a child really show! This kind of understanding of the piano and it's capabilities can only come from one who has devoted his or her life to music and the instrument to the point that he or she has become one with it.The first four tracks are beautiful, and I was thoroughly enjoying my initial ride through the album, but the fifth track, Baroque composer Tomas Albioni's "Adagio" really grabbed me. A familiar piece occasionally used in soundtracks, Barabas' treatment simply shimmers! It is primarily a piano piece with background choral and instrumental accompaniment - what a incredible beauty! "Epiphany" is another favorite. It opens with an energetic piano solo as the sax begins to weave its way into the melody. Dark and haunting, I find this piece has an almost ominous quality that I really like - the percussion certainly adds to the drama - and then the dark clouds open to welcome a burst of musical sunshine. This is also a very remarkable piece! "Solar Wind" is piano with synth strings - again, a haunting and incredibly beautiful piece. The last two tracks return to a more upbeat, jazzy feel - especially "Dance Me to Heaven", a light and breezy love song. This is a very strong album from start to finish, but the middle four tracks are incredible! I'm hooked, and look forward to discovering Tom Barabas' other works!

5 out of 5 stars Deeply Relaxing.......2007-05-11

I'm a yoga teacher who teaches a very nurturing practice called Restorative/Therapeutic Yoga. I use this cd each time i conduct a class, workshop or individual session and find that students are able to really "drop down" into their bodies and let day-to-day life fall away. Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars This CD will move you down to your soul!.......2006-12-02

I don't usually write reviews, but this CD really stands out and deserves high marks. Once I listened to the sample tracks, I just had to buy it (I even got one as a Christmas gift for a relative). I was surprised at how deeply the music on this disc touched me. I received it today, and couldn't wait to play it - I wasn't disappointed! It is beautifully done! I have heard other singing bowl CDs, but they are almost too overpowering. This CD has just the right combination of music, and is the most relaxing and peaceful thing I've heard in a long time. The flute, bells, and ocean sounds, in combination with the singing bowls, just melts all the stress of the day away.
I can't wait to listen to it with earphones!
You won't be disappointed with the CD - it's wonderful!
ENJOY! :o)

5 out of 5 stars Truly magical.......2006-08-20

Unlike many new age music which sends you out of the body on melodic fantasies , these compositions bring you deep peace while allowing you to stay present in your body. Anynone who has not heard tibetan bowls before will undoubtely be touched by their multiple sounds and out of range vibrations which are designed to allow humans to experience their divinity within.

5 out of 5 stars Extremely Meditative Music for all the Chakras.......2006-04-18

Golden Spa Tones takes me to a deep space where I can let go of any thoughts and completely relax. The resonant tones of the Tibetan bowls take one on a journey through all the chakras. The deep base tones touch a place deep inside and the higher bowls and flutes lift the spirit. Highly recommended for all healing modalities, yoga and meditation.

5 out of 5 stars Ahh. or Ohm.......2007-03-30

This is the most relaxing music possibly, I've ever experienced. When I bought my first copy in a bookstore in Albuquerque, I had asked the clerk to play it for me before purchase. Upon listening to it with me, she said she felt so calm, that the rest of her day was going to be great-Unless she fell asleep!-Thats how "unstressed" it makes one feel.
I have given this CD (also in "tape" form) to people for gifts. Everyone has enjoyed it. Most recently, I gave a copy to my Yoga teacher. She plays it during class-Although "Sedona Suite" is "calming", it also can be mood enhancing and energyzing-Multi-purpose-
I also bought "Journey Back to Sedona"-Its okay but, I would say that this is by far Tom Barabas'es best!

5 out of 5 stars Sedona Suite.......2007-01-12

This is by far the best CD ever. We use it everytime we take a trip, it is the "TRIP" CD. The music is beautiful, it fills the air. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get lost in great music.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!.......2006-03-26

Luckily this was a gift. No words. Gorgeous new age piano music, very relaxing. I loved it so much I got the sheet music and played it over and over until I got it down. Yanni who? This guy is unique and you will love it. Years later on a trip to Sedona I bought his next album, Journey Back to Sedona, and it was good but nothing compares to this album, if you buy one, buy this one.

5 out of 5 stars Quiet, beautiful music with energy.......2005-10-10

This is my first Tom Barabas CD, and I've since bought "Journey Back to Sedona" as well. The music is quiet and beautiful, yet has a lot of energy to it, especially in the "More than Words", "Free Spirit" and "Moon Dust" tracks.

4 out of 5 stars Old Standards Never Die.......2004-10-29

I'm going to join the group that has had this album around for a long time. It was one of the first tapes I kept in the car as regular background music, and I've probably listened to it so much that I have it memorized. The CD version is in my library, and it still gets dragged out with regularity. Obviously, I like it.

Barabas uses fairly conservative classical music styling in presenting his music, often playing over orchestration. There are occasional similarities to Liszt, and a definite debt to all romantic pianists. Structured, entirely likable, but with nary a hard edge in sight. Barabas is a talented musician, and it shows in his technique more than anywhere else, where he refuses to fall into any typical, new age pattern.

The one flaw is that the music is a bit over-orchestrated and high flown. This are things that only become apparent on repeated, focused listening, and shouldn't interfere in the least with your enjoyment unless you are a purist. I'm not, and think there should be at least one Barabas album in every collection. Sedona Suite would be a good choice.

This Dean Evenson release is aptly titled, for Healing Sanctuary is an album one will want to meditate or chill out to by candlelight. While the album consists of eight compositions, they form a unified whole, maintaining a feeling of peace and tranquility throughout this hourlong journey. Evenson's soothing flute leads the way, underscored by his keyboards and accompanied by harpists Dudley Evenson and d'Rachael, with occasional guitar from Scott Huckabay and viola or hammered dulcimer from Phil Heaven. They gracefully weave an aural cocoon out of the ether, opening up a private place for mental and physical relaxation. Such concepts are nothing new to the New Age world, but the lush, inviting soundscapes of Healing Sanctuary maintain their allure and offer therapeutic qualities that many like-minded efforts do not. --Bryan Reesman

Album Description

"Leave your anxiety, tension, stress and fear at the gate and enter a Healing Sanctuary of relaxing and releasing sound in this gorgeous release from mystical flutist, Dean Evenson. In this serene space, personal or even planetary turmoil will lose their grip on the psyche as gentle waves of peace wash over the listener. Flutes, harps, keyboards and guitars gently drift in and out, creating tranquil soundscapes that are perfect for the healing arts, meditation, relaxation and sleep time. From the opening track, the listener is immersed in Peace Like a River and worldly concerns quickly seem to vanish like a distant shoreline, leaving the listener Quietly Floating Home in the soothing sounds and subtle energies of true serenity. In this place of spirit, one can connect to the healing forces of the universe and focus them on the outer world or Mending Your Own Mind, where this release leaves us. Immediately upon hearing Healing Sanctuary, I placed it in the #1 slot of my sleep-time music set, the slot that carries me into dream and I've found it sets the mood for deeply relaxing sleep and expansive dreams. Easily, one of Dean's best works, Healing Sanctuary receives my highest recommendation to all lovers of beautiful and relaxing new age music." -MUSICAL SOUNDSCAPES

Candles.... a hot bath... and this CD.... Need I say more?

Okay, how about: Candles.... a soothing massage.... and this CD.

What a wonderfully peaceful, spiritually evocative collection of instrumental songs! This is great for Yoga or any form of relaxation you can dream of. It even works great for background during more romantic and intimate moments.

This is a jewel!

5 out of 5 stars At Last, a Peaceful Night.......2003-08-28

Until three days ago I was not a fan of New Age music. I have now ordered another Dean Evenson CD and know I will buy more. I feel strange thanking artists for putting me to sleep, but I want to assure them should they read this that putting this lifelong insomniac to sleep is no small task. The peace I feel when I listen to this music is deep. My mind drifts off into beautiful settings that are first part of waking dreams and then of sleeping ones. The warm tones of the flute and harps are real; so much New Age music is oversynthesized. The artists have created a sanctuary indeed.

Ocean Dreams is the most calming and relaxing cd I have ever owned! It makes you feel as if you're sitting on the beach, just gazing up at the beautiful night sky. If you have trouble falling asleep at night, then I suggest buying this cd. You won't regret it!

5 out of 5 stars Pure tranquility...deepening our connection to the earth..........2005-08-31

This CD was given to me as a gift from a dear friend, and what an amazing gift it was! Evenson's music invites the listener into a deep state of connectedness...at first a gentle beckoning that soons envelopes one in total peace. The meditative (and often joyful) sound of Evenson's flute and the energizing flow of water are punctuated by the enchanting communications of dolphins and whales, inviting us to remember our deepest connection to all of life.

As a Reiki practitioner, I find this CD invaluable to my healing music collection. Evenson's work is unique and inspired and definitely sets a standard in the New Age genre. Even those who don't typically like New Age music should give this a listen. There is much to discover in Evenson's work. His intention to create "Peace Through Music" is evident in every track. Let the joy envelope your heart!

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful relaxation with beautiful music and sounds.......2005-04-20

This was my first Dean Evenson CD and has started a snowballing collection - I love this guy! This CD is *VERY* relaxing and will calm you down right away. I have PTSD and used it during my worst times - it brought me back down to earth and got me relaxed. One note - do not use while driving. It's a little TOO relaxing for that. The ocean and ocean animal sounds are perfect and work wonderfully with the music. Well worth it!!

5 out of 5 stars Just RELAX!.......2004-03-10

Used it during my pregnancy and labor, then to sooth our baby to sleep. Our "baby" (now 9) loves this disc and other Dean Evenson material. We play it every night or as we head to nap time and he happily drops off to sleep. I've bought copies for his pre-school and daycare. It relaxes the kids and was guaranteed to get a room full of toddlers snoring in no time.

This is my favorite baby gift and I've also bought copies for friends and massage therapists. This CD is very special: pure relaxation.

I used this CD to relax during birth and to relax my baby in the first few months and it was a treasure.

5 out of 5 stars LIQUID PEACE.......2007-02-22

"Tao of Peace" takes me back to another place in time, perfect tranquility in unity beyond the taking on of human form. This music is a wonderful gift that adds synergy to Rei-ki. Li Xiangting is a healer.

5 out of 5 stars Just wonderfully relaxing!.......2006-12-12

I own a number of Dean Evenson CDs, and this one is one of my favorites along with Tao of Healing. I have a hard time finding the right words to describe the music other than "perfectly woven". Everything just seems to fit right into place and is wonderfully balanced. I've always loved Oriental music, as long as it's done right - and this really is done so well. My favorite track is Slow Samba. The rhythm makes it both relaxing and uplifting at the same time. It has always brought me a deep sense of peace.

Call this corny... but I recently moved into a new home and it was very important to me to 'set the right energy' for my house. I rely heavily on music to do that, so the first songs I played in the new home were really important to me. I chose Slow Samba as the second song I played (the first was "Morning Has Broken" by Cat Stevens because it reminded me of my Grandma and the peace she brought my life.) I remember looking out over the hills and watching the sun set as Slow Samba played. Very peaceful and relaxing! I would definitely recommend this CD along with Tao of Healing.

5 out of 5 stars East meets West.......2005-10-26

I use this CD a lot for meditation or yoga practice. The music has a very peaceful feel to it and I like the use of traditional Chinese instruments. There is an East meets West feel here that is very appealing. My husband likes it for a background when he does tai chi.

Dean Evenson has many fine CDs on the market, but this is probably my favorite.

5 out of 5 stars A perfect companion to Tao of Healing.......2005-04-28

I also own Tao of Peace, another album by the same artists, and this one takes off where the other left off. The same beautiful flute and Guqin blend to create a soothing, and exotic mix. Perfect for massage, meditation, or yoga.

4 out of 5 stars Great for meditation and massage.......2007-07-07

Some new age music can be monotonous or uncaptivating. This album is diverse, interesting and very relaxing. A tremendous CD for meditation, massage or just relaxation. I'd rate it a 5 in it's genre, a 4 in all genres.

5 out of 5 stars healinghands.......2007-04-21

I have been listening and playing music from Peace through Music for 7 years. In my massage office, they are the favorite among my clients. This CD in particular creates a serene aura and every time I play it, even my talkative clients calm down and let healing begin for themselves. It is a must have for healing professionals and those wishing to vibrate on a higher level during meditaion!

5 out of 5 stars Earth Resonance Frequency.......2005-06-29

"In order to enhance a state of deep relaxation, we have included within the mix of music and natural sounds, the Earth Resonance Frequency of 7.8 hertz. This natural frequency of the planet's ionosphere supports relaxation, meditation, and "superlearning." ~Peace Through Music

Listening to this CD, reading poetry and soaking in an essential oil/sea salt bath is a weekly indulgence. I love the water sounds in Healing Waters and this CD always induces a deep state of relaxation. There are ocean waves, lush flutes, dreamy harps and flowing rivers. I love the way the waves sound and the way the flutes create a magical environment.

Instruments:

Silver Flute
Native Flute
Keyboards
Acoustic Guitar
Harp
Cello
Guqin - a silk-stringed zither, China's oldest stringed instrument

Sometime I fall asleep at night listening to this CD and imagine I'm in an underwater bubble with fish swimming all around. I have seen shows where they have underwater hotels like this, but so far I've only visited in my imagination.
For a deeper relaxation experience, use headphones and get into a warm comfy bed.

If you fall in love with this CD, also look for music by Tom Barabas, Scott Huckabay, Singh Kaur, Daniel Paul and Sunyata.

5 out of 5 stars Relaxing music that isn't too New-Agey.......2005-04-28

I was looking for an album to relax to at the end of the day, during breath meditation, or a hot bath, but I didn't like the typical spaced out sounds of New Age music. This album delivers! It is beautiful, while never repetitive, and the whale/dolphin sounds feel like a natural, subtle addition to the music rather than a distraction. I have purchased several of Dean Evensons albums and they are all as wonderful as this one, and yet I could own several more without feeling like they repeat themselves. I can listen to them over and over again!

5 out of 5 stars Terrific background music.......2003-01-31

I use the CD Healing Waters by Dean Evenson as musical background in my office. I believe it helps me to concentrate better on the task at hand, but also allows me to cope with the challenges of the work day. I would recommend it. I may even buy a second one for meditation sessions at home.
